Our 2ND CENTURY ChallengeOur 2ND CENTURY Challenge

Just Sustaining where we are - Scouting will not last another Century

• Facts: – Scouting in Monmouth County is currently a minority

in a growing diverse general population with no Scouting connection

– Multinational, Religious, Cultural, Economic groups, families and communities have no historic connection to Scouting & no idea how we can help them.

Our PlanOur Plan

• Goal: Develop and Grow Scouting in every community in Monmouth County

Use 4 Core BSA Strategic PillarsMembershipResourceLeadership DevelopmentProgram Delivery

Embed Branding of Scouting, Youth Advocacy & Innovation in all the Targeted Recommendations

Our Monmouth Scouting PioneersOur Monmouth Scouting Pioneers• A History Lesson: 1916

No Scouting Legacy – No Alumni – No Program – No Organizational Knowledge

Scouting in Monmouth County had no Troops, Packs, Posts or “Council”

Volunteers and a few Scouting “Professionals” from the New York City visited civic leaders, clergy, educators in key towns to bring Scouting to their community.

Scouting happened in their communities based on a desire by parents and civic leaders to help boys become purposeful men

We will do it again for the next Century of Youth
